The book for August is The Midnight Library by Matt Haig. Between life and death there is a library, and within that library, the shelves go on forever. Every book provides a chance to try another life you could have lived.
The book for July is A Good Death by Christopher Cox. When American Linda Watts, who emigrated from Laos as a child refugee, dies of a drug overdose in Bangkok, the insurance company holding her policy doesn’t buy that her death was accidental.
